Good Vibes

At a cultural festival this weekend, amid the many crafters, dancers, and purveyors of ethnic food, there was a musical duet that stood out. Two men played what I took to be vibraphones, although one may have been a marimba. The two musicians wove strands of melody into complex patterns of beautiful sound that rose, fell, and spiraled like kite tails on the cool spring breeze. This drawing is another from the sketchbook archives, but its selection is inspired by today’s musical experience.
